Lying When Awake

by Matthias L. - Capricorn

It is the same as ever, will it never change?
Unadressed writinges never sent as they were planned
Yet they've always meant what say aloud I can't 

Can't get away from the dark
It's time to end this charade
Where all throughout the game
Unfinished dreams were all I've made

Is there a requiem for those alive
Who have lost it all in their own schemes
Always planning, not forgiving
Unforgiven and alone with silent screams

Different faces I have too, I fear
Just one inside but a variety to show
Those seen by you won't shed a tear
The hidden one you'll never know

There is a thing that I have lost
That was not to be found at all
Not even in the first place
Now that I've discovered it
I can no more let it go
And keep chasing after it
Investigating any trace
